Rainbow Revealed

Originally from London, England, Rainbow thought he had met his soul mate online and eventually transplanted to the U.S.A. to marry her. Unfortunately, she was not the soul mate he thought she was. The tragic story of this Lost Love and yet more Lost Loves he has experienced whilst on this side of the pond includes two experiences, which show some of the inherent perils of Internet dating, as well as the unfortunate results of some of his more usual, though unusual, boy meets girl, boy loses girl sagas. They are all true, autobiographical stories written in both story and verse. Anyhoo, back to the plot Rainbow had come to a crossroad in his life. His marriage of 3 happy years - not bad out of 12 - was virtually dead on its feet no matter how, or what he tried to rekindle the flame. Suddenly the thoughts, hopes and dreams that had been with him for so long had a chance of coming to fruition. What he interpreted at the time as being signs and omens led him to attempt to materialize his Rock and Roll Dream and embark on what he looked upon as a great adventure in lands across the sea...
